The Buckeyes roll into Camp Randall for their third road game in four weeks, and Wisconsin is spiraling after three straight losses — including a 37–0 beatdown by Iowa. In this episode, we're breaking down the five keys to another Buckeye blowout, from silencing the crowd to finishing drives with touchdowns. 🧱 5 Keys to a Buckeye Victory: 1️⃣ Start Fast — Quiet Camp Randall early with tempo and balance. 2️⃣ Protect Sayin — Pick up delayed blitzes; keep him clean and confident. 3️⃣ Run the Damn Ball — Find rhythm with Bo Jackson before the 4th quarter. 4️⃣ Spy the QB / Control Edges — Don't let Hunter Simmons escape broken plays. 5️⃣ Finish Drives — Field goals early, touchdowns late — bury them. The formula is simple: start fast, stay balanced, and choke them out. Ohio State's defense leads the nation in scoring (6.8 PPG) and hasn't allowed a first-half TD all year. Don't expect that to change in Madison. 🎧 Listen on Spotify, Apple Podcasts & all platforms 📺 Watch the full episode on YouTube @TheBuckeyeCast Friday, October 17, 2025 Subscribe to the Podcast 📺 Watch On YouTube https://www.youtube.com/thebuckeyecast LIKE 👍 and SUBSCRIBE to the YouTube channel  https://www.youtube.com/@TheBuckeyeCast?sub_confirmation=1 ⭐️ Get Your Buckeye Gear ON SALE NOW!!!
